The image shows six red sandwich cookies arranged on a dark slate board, each cookie made of two rough-textured, bright red cookie layers. In between the cookie layers, there is a thick dark chocolate filling, with white, sharp, almond-shaped candies placed like teeth around the middle layer to resemble a mouth. The top cookie layer is decorated with small white marshmallows and brown almond slices scattered on top. Around the cookies on the board are scattered white toasted marshmallows and small red oval candies. In the background, there is a glass of red juice, a glass mug of white milk, and a small orange pumpkin, all placed on a dark surface.

Ingredients

Chocolate chip cookies
Mini marshmallows
Red frosting
Slivered almonds
Chocolate frosting (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Cut the chocolate chip cookies in half. These will form the top and bottom parts of the dentures.
Step 2: Spread a layer of red frosting on the flat side of each cookie half to resemble gums.
Step 3: Arrange mini marshmallows along the curved edge of one cookie half to represent teeth.
Step 4: Place the second cookie half on top, flat side down, and gently press together to sandwich the marshmallows evenly and hold them in place.
Step 5: Insert slivered almonds between some marshmallows to create sharp vampire fangs.
Step 6: (Optional) Spread chocolate frosting around the edges to give the dentures a more realistic and finished look. Serve immediately or chill until ready to eat.

Tips & Variations

Use cream cheese or any sturdy frosting if red frosting isn’t available, and add food coloring to achieve the color.
Try different cookie types like sugar or oatmeal for a unique flavor twist.
For a healthier twist, use almond butter or peanut butter instead of frosting to hold the teeth in place.
Decorate with small candy eyes or edible glitter for extra spooky fun.

Storage

Store assembled Dracula Dentures in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The marshmallows may soften over time, so it’s best to assemble close to serving time. Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best texture and flavor.

How to Serve

There are several red cookie sandwiches on a dark round slate board placed on a white marbled surface, each sandwich has two layers of red cookies with a thick middle layer of dark chocolate, white candy pieces shaped like teeth are placed vertically between the cookie layers to look like a mouth, mini white marshmallows and small brown nuts cover the top cookie layer of each sandwich, scattered around the board are small white marshmallows and red candy pieces, a small orange pumpkin is seen in the background next to a clear glass of milk and a tall glass of red juice. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use other types of frosting besides red?

Yes, you can use any frosting you like. Red is traditional to mimic gums, but pink, white, or even chocolate frosting works well depending on your preference.

How can I keep the marshmallows from falling out?

Press the cookie halves gently together to secure the marshmallows and use frosting as “glue.” Chilling the dentures briefly before serving also helps keep everything in place.

Ingredients

Cookies

Chocolate chip cookies – 6, cut in half

Frostings

Red frosting – 1/2 cup
Chocolate frosting (optional) – 1/4 cup

Teeth and Fangs

Mini marshmallows – 24
Slivered almonds – 24 pieces

Instructions

Prepare the cookie bases: Cut the chocolate chip cookies in half carefully to create the top and bottom parts of your ‘dentures’. Each cookie half will act as either the upper or lower jaw.
Apply red frosting: Spread a generous layer of red frosting onto the flat side of each cookie half. This will simulate the gums and help the marshmallows stick.
Add the marshmallow teeth: Line up small, round mini marshmallows along the curved edge of one cookie half, placing them close together to represent the vampire teeth.
Sandwich the halves: Gently place the second cookie half, flat side down, on top of the marshmallow-covered half. Press lightly to close the sandwich and secure the marshmallows in place.
Insert the fangs: Carefully insert slivered almonds between the marshmallows to resemble sharp vampire fangs, creating a dramatic effect.
Optional finishing touch: If desired, spread a thin layer of chocolate frosting over the outside of the dentures to give them a more realistic and polished appearance.
Serve: Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy. These spooky treats make for a delightful Halloween party snack that’s both fun to make and eat.

Notes

You can use any type of chocolate chip cookies, but sturdier ones work best to hold the structure.
The red frosting is essential for the ‘gums’ look; you can also use colored cream cheese frosting as an alternative.
Slivered almonds are sharp; handle with care when inserting to avoid breakage.
These treats are best served fresh for optimal marshmallow texture; chilling can slightly firm up the frosting and cookies.
Feel free to get creative with other decorative candies to add a spooky twist.
